Most-played Palamedes games
Palamedes
Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)Puzzle
Palamedes is a Jaleco action-puzzle game for the Nintendo Entertainment System in which the player uses numbered dice to stop an advancing field. Instead of moving falling blocks directly, you launch a die from the bottom and match its face against dice in the playfield. Successful matches remove dice and create room before the stack reaches the danger line. The game includes solo and two-player play, with rules centered on quick aiming and number recognition. Its unusual dice mechanic gives it a distinct identity among NES puzzle games, although its difficulty and less familiar format made it more of a specialist favorite than a major mainstream hit.
How is this list kept current?
How rankings are calculated
The list is generated from active EmuGamers catalog entries. Votes and play activity determine order; browser compatibility is reported separately and does not turn an untested game into a higher-ranked recommendation.
| Order | Signal | How it is used |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
